Got some food items and want to find a recipe for them?  Heard about a recipe we have and want to find it quickly?  Type what you are looking for into the search field located in the upper right-hand corner of the page.  Piece of cake.

Our priority is to use fresh organic produce, dairy, grains and meats.  We begin with the groceries available to us (and that we can afford), preferably at a local farmers market and/or co-op.  Once we have our ingredients, then we either look them up in the index of one of our fave cookbooks, or barge ahead on inspiration.  One thing we are sure of - organic just tastes (feels!) better.  Because we really love food, its all about using wonderful ingredients.

Its difficult to over-estimate the value of farmers and their endeavors.  Given the importance of their work to our health, they would seem to deserve all our affection and more.  We are encouraged by the recent trend away from big agriculture and monoculture.  The small (and large) organic farms that are cropping up all around the world are making life better for their communities, and maybe for all of us.  Organic meat, cheese, wine and beer are also making inroads to modern life.  Sometimes the word 'conscious' comes up in place of organic:  this word denotes the sense of personal responsibility that may lead to a better future.

We welcome your input, comments, submissions and suggestions.  If you have questions about a recipe, life in northern california or kung-fu cooking, we would be happy to answer them.
